The 10 Best Monuments & Statues in Azores, Portugal

April 23, 2022 Sheron Bogner

The nine islands that make up the Azores are in fact the peaks of some of the world's tallest mountains, reaching from deep beneath the Atlantic. The once-uninhabited, volcanic archipelago now hosts thousands of tourists every year who flock to the islands for sun, sand and verdant mountain scenery. From the beaches of Praia da Vitoria to the bustling marina of Horta, to the bubbling volcanic ground "ovens" of Furnas, these islands offer unparalleled--and unusual--adventures to discover.

Worth A Pause To Snap A Photo For A Few Minutes, it’s just a roundabout and you will probably pass it on the way into town from the airport, the bull ring is across the street from it.

I recommend including this monument to be included in your walking exploration of Ponta Delgada. It is near the marina.
